Could you please revert the workload patch (b45a38317777678b94cdf4cc81896e3a66db68bd) as it seems to try to execute some random memory. When powertop is started as ./powertop I see the following stack trace: Breakpoint 1, system (line=3D0x7fffffffd440 "\020\020i") at pt-system.c:29 29 pt-system.c: No such file or directory.
